"Stories from a vision-impaired perspective by Australian author-presenter Maribel Steel"

http://whistlererin.blogspot.com [5]
"If you read my blog you'll find out how we're adopting, why I read braille, whether or not we're crunchy, what I've been sewing, when we play music and where we live and homeschool. Although we live in a tiny town in Idaho with nothing to do, we're pretty busy!"

http://blindvisionblog.blogspot.com [6]
"The Blind Vision Blog has blind-related subject matter along with general thoughts and stories concerning my entire life. I fully subscribe to the concept that individuals with visual disabilities are not just their "blindness." We are human beings who happen to be visually impaired. I became blind in 2008 due to diabetes-related complications."

"Welcome to Blind Access Tools and Services, otherwise known as BATS. This website is created by visually impaired people for visually impaired people. Are you always searching for resources or services? Are you just entering the realm of visual impairment? We hope this site can help you."

"I was diagnosed with Stargadt's disease when I was 12. I knew little about my disease and even fewer people who were severely visually impaired like me. It wasn't until this year (I am in my 30s) that I met another individual with Stargardt's. It is my hope that this blog can further this cause of educating, empowering, encouraging, and enabling people with visual impairments."

http://to-my-dear-angel.blogspot.com [9]
"I want to do a kind of a diary for my daughter Angelina to read when she is older. You see, her mother, me, is deaf and is now legally blind. Angelina has only known me as a deaf and legally blind person, but years before I was able to see better and have had many adventures. The blog is to share with others also, so that they can too see that there is more to me, much, much more. One day soon I will be 'the blind lady with the dog' and I will love for people to see beyond the disabilities. This blog, I hope, will achieve that."

http://maculardegenerationandme.com [11]
"My name is Pepi Noble and my eye condition is known as Age-Related Macular Degeneration, a deteriorating disease of the center of the vision field called the macula. Diagnosed when I was 50 years old, I've had many years to learn about this insidious condition. I've had up days, down days and inside-out days. Eighteen years later I've come to realize each day is a gift and I can treasure what I do have. Now it's time to tell my story so that other folks with this condition can take heart and live fine and productive lives."

Brian can be seen performing regularly at comedy clubs all over New York City. Only problem is, he will not see you. Brian recently launched his own foundation, Comedians Unite For Sight. The foundation produces the 'Laugh for Sight' benefits to fund retinal research as it hits the critical stage of human testing."

"I created this blog to share the journey of raising my visually impaired son. Thomas was born with detached retinas and has had five vitrectomy surgeries and three glaucoma surgeries. He currently has some vision but we don't know what he can see because he is a toddler and can't quite tell us yet. We do know that Thomas is a rowdy little man who loves Jazz music. You can often find him flinging toys around, playing the keyboard or ukulele, or practicing walking."

http://woofmantom.blogspot.com [17]
"I am an Independent Living Skills instructor at a small but innovative agency in Toronto called BALANCE for Blind Adults though most of what I do these days seems to have more to do with technology, particularly iDevices. People seem to want to know about color identifiers, light detectors, object recognition, and all the cool stuff that makes for more independence once you have one of these devices in your hand."

http://theblindodiaries.blog.com [19]
"Being a Blindo is about confidence and self-assurance. I understand I have a disability, but it is not the end-all. Being a Blindo is about educating the general public, not getting angry when they don't know something they wouldn't possibly be able to understand. Being a Blindo is about knowing that you are so much more than that; it's about not letting this one thing define you."

I hope to make it a useful resource for people looking for more information about the things I am involved with, including charities and organisations that support visually impaired people and descriptions about a number of eye conditions, including research into treatments, coping methods, and support groups."

"Welcome to my blog, a sort of public journal of my thoughts, observations, and experiences. I became blind at birth. This happened in 1977. I got my first computer in 1983 or so, an Apple II/E, the first home computer the blind could use. I took to it immediately, and started programming as soon as I learned how. Since day one I have pretty much taught myself everything I know with computers. To this day it still seems magical that I can write code and make a computer do something new."

http://blind-geeks.blogspot.com [29]
"Welcome to Blind Geek News and Reviews! Let's go back to 12/18/2010, the day I became totally blind. I went ahead and registered for my classes for Spring term 2011 after being told there was a plethora of assistive technology options that would allow me to continue my studies. Flash forward 1 month to 1/18/2011, the 1st day of classes. No assistive tech in place. We haven't even figured out where it's coming from, or how it's being funded. Stay tuned to The Blind Geek!"

http://revisionsofjoy.blogspot.com [33]
"A testimony on my simultaneous adjustment to blindness and motherhood, all the while attempting to maintain my sanity and sense of self. In 2010, my life changed dramatically and irreversibly. One way was joyous, and is reflected in her name, my daughter Emeline Joy was born. I know that many of the challenges I have faced are not unique. However, they feel slightly more complex and daunting than the 'typical' adjustment to parenthood because I am literally going at it blind."

"This is a blog about many things. I am a storyteller so there will be information about that in my blog. I am a guide dog user so I will talk about that as well. Stay tuned."

"Since 2005 I have been suffering from Histiocytosis, a very rare condition. I have two types, Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) and Erdheim-Chester (ECD). I am one of only about 300 reported cases of Erdheim-Chester and one of only 8 confirmed cases of both types of the condition in the world. I lost my eyesight in 2007 as a result of my optic nerves being crushed by non-cancerous masses behind both my eyes caused by ECD. Though this condition may present, act, and be treated like cancer, it is not cancer."

"I happen to be totally blind, but, lest you think I'm counting myself among the many blind and visually-impaired musicians who are out there, I'm not. By that, I mean that my blindness is in no way associated with my abilities as a musician. I'm not any more or less gifted than the next person, and I find there's a huge difference between a 'blind musician' and a musician who happens to be blind, the latter I would consider myself as being."

http://kristenwitucki.wordpress.com [45]
"Kristen Witucki was born and raised in Southern New Jersey, not "down the shore," but far enough south that the big city was Philadelphia, not New York. She has been totally blind since birth.

Instead of teaching, she became a perpetual student, earning a Masters degree in giftedness from Teachers College, Columbia University and an MFA in fiction from Sarah Lawrence College. She is currently pursuing a Masters in education of the blind and visually impaired at Dominican College."

"My vision is affected by a retinal disorder known as Stargardt’s Disease, which results in progressive loss of central vision. Similar in nature to macular degeneration, difficulty reading print, difficulty seeing faces, and, rest assured, I do not drive a car. Having learned well to maximize the vision I have, I am quite able to compensate in numerous ways.... The experience has not been isolating; in fact, quite the opposite: I have vision challenges in common with millions, and this blog is an excellent place to share some great ways to make technology 'easy on the eyes.'"

"I am a blind guy in Silver Spring, Maryland. A stay-home-dad, who finds himself staying home too much these days... Crossing the street in this town is downright dangerous, most of the time. The simple act of walking down the street can be an ankle-busting experience for anyone - especially a blind guy. I am trying to get some things fixed so that I can go out after my kids go to college - so that I don't become a shut-in. Montgomery County Department of Transportation only responds to complaints, so here I go. I take a camera and video camera with me wherever I go. It helps if I can take an image home with me to see it on a large screen with a zoom. I'll let you see them too."

"2020 Vision Quest begins with Randy Pierce and his Guide Dog, Quinn, climbing all 48 of the rugged 4000+ foot peaks in the New Hampshire White Mountains and will continue well beyond this challenge, seeking at every turn to provide inspiration and support to others as they set their own personal goals and strive to achieve them."

http://zipdogblog.com [51]
"As my life and the internet both progressed, albeit at different paces, I began my quest for my second Guide Dog at a time when there were not any readily found blogs on the topic. I’d come a long road in life to reach the point I was ready for Quinn and this blog was initially intended as a means to keep folks informed while I traveled to meet the Mighty One and complete our training together."

"I am a wife and mother of three almost-adult children living in Rochester, NY. Although my vision has never been good, it has deteriorated rapidly in the past year. While looking for positive, proactive ways to deal with transitioning into low vision living, I hit upon the idea of developing a blog to record my experiences."

http://raghava.in [58]
"I am always thankful for what I have and what is coming my way. But there are a couple of things which I really wanted to do with my blog and there is something which stops me from doing it. I am visually impaired; that means in simple language I cannot see. I am not totally blind; there is some amount of vision left out which helps to see the world and its beauty to some extent. The beautiful flowers, birds and colors of the world ask me to watch them as I walk, talk, think, etc."

http://www.lowvisionary.com [59]
"I have been involved in the world of disability all my life, if you count living with low vision. Over the years I have worked on a fair number of disability issues and have developed some strong views on many of them. Post yours and let’s engage in some intelligent and respectful discussion and debate on our disability passions. One of my passions is accessibility, and in particular access to information."

As I'm not an expert, please use this site as a signpost to further information."

"Photographer Andrew Follows, suffering from retinitis pigmentosa, a degenerative ocular disease that renders me legally blind and reliant on my guide dog Eamon to move about. When I take a photograph I do so because in that time and place I cannot see what the camera can, yet I know that image, that event, will be waiting for me when I am ready and able to view it. In this way, the camera becomes my eyes and my photographs my only way of experiencing a past moment from which I am otherwise excluded. Instead of wallowing in what I cannot see I become excited by what I can."

He has little to no vision, and we believe he has Leber's Congenital Amaurosis (LCA). This is the documentation of our new journey for our friends, family, and all those interested in learning more about retinal dystrophy disorders."

"Between the ages of 11 and 17 years old, I attended the Kentucky School for the Blind located in Louisville, Kentucky. During those years, thanks to some good and very patient folks at the school, I learned to play several instruments including the guitar, saxophone, clarinet, and my personal favorite, the piano. I also discovered that I enjoyed and had a knack for singing and songwriting … I have lived in southern California for the past 21 years. There have been many, many adventures, to say the least."

A blog by author and poet Stephen Kuusisto. "My wife, Connie and I co-write this blog. Our vision is to make a space where those of us who live on the Planet of the Blind, or any other planet, can share our experiences and network together. In so doing we hope that this blog will not be limited to blind people only. It is our hope that the friends and spouses and children of people with or without disabilities will also find a space here in which to talk about the issues and concerns that continue to affect all of us who daily live and work and love on this Planet of ours."
